In this work, an electrolytic water pre-treatment was studied and applied to the water from a fountainhead. The action against microorganisms was evaluated using cast-iron and aluminum electrodes. Assays were made in laboratory using the electrolytic treatment. After 5 min of electrolysis the heterotrophic bacteria count was below 500 cfu/mL and complete elimination of total and fecal coliforms was observed. Using electrolytic treatment as a pretreatment of conventional tap water treatment is proposed.508-513porelectrolytic treatmentwater disinfectionwater qualityAvaliação em escala laboratorial da utilização do processo eletrolítico no tratamento de águasLaboratory scale assessment of an electrolytic process for water treatmentArtigo10.1590/S0100-40422008000300008S0100-40422008000300008WOS:000256956100008Acesso abertoS0100-40422008000300008.pdf92203485835600430000-0001-7040-1983
